Every office has one

Every office has one, that person that listens in on every conversation, and then whispers it to others. How ironic that she is the HR representative. We could list her salary under 'telephone' expense instead of salary. Our office 'telephone' changed cubicles this week. Now she's diagonally across the cube structure from me. She moved so she could have more privacy when she talks with people. I mentioned that I can hear every keystroke on her computer and every word she says. She just laughed and said she could every word from my space too. I don't think she got it.

Necessities of Life

Purses and cell phones. Should be able to test these necessities for a few days before making a commitment. After all with the price of phones and some purses, your are practically making life commitment, or at least 2 years depending on your cellular service agreement.

My phone is back

It happened like this. I got on the phone with my cell service provider to discuss when they might allow me to purchase a new phone and not violate my contract and be subject to millions of dollars in penalties. I was advised that September 3 was their generous offer to me, since I wasn't actually eligible until December 3.

Guess my phone overheard the conversation because the very next morning, after charging for days on end, my phone came back to life. Miracle might be too strong of a word, but I was excited. So excited in fact that I sent my sister Kathleen a text before 7 in the morning. I don't recommend this but she understood my overwhelming joy.

My phone acts a little funky sometimes, and tires easily. But it keeps me in touch with all my favorite people, what more could I ask?

There you have it. Now that I've begun dreaming of new phones, my old one is back to life. What to do, what to do...
